New Mizuno irons – exclusive pictures

Published

on

The MP-67 range from Mizuno has been out for almost two years making it due for an update in a few months time. GolfWRX has exclusive pictures taken of what may be the replacement.

Not only that but an updated version of the MP-62 surfaced at the same event  – what looks like a Black Nickel finish similar to that offered on the Mizuno wedges. As these are generally acknowledged to have a slightly softer feel that the chrome versions, it will be interesting to see if this carries through to the irons too.

The new muscle back seems to have a similar shape to some previous Mizuno classics like the TN-87 and the 14, 29 and 37 of the MP range by having the muscleback cut down at the toe end. Where they appear to differ is that there appears to be a narrow ridge of extra muscle along the bottom edge.Adopting the dual muscle concept of the recent MP-62 range seems to indicate that the cut-muscle technology has been well and truly superseded.

The darker version of the MP-62 extends Mizuno’s options in the better player market and along with this new muscleback shows that a company renown as one of the greatest iron manufacturers has not sat on their laurels.

    They really don’t “look” all that great to me? I play 60’s right now…think the 67’s would be worth looking at. As a side, I liked the nike blade pretty well when I tried them. I still use the cally proto as my benchmark, it was a very solid club.

    thanks martin, you are correct about the misleading part

    @nick,
    The grooves on Mizuno irons are modified U-grooves that are conforming to the new regs. These new regs do not actually ban U-grooves as such, only the more aggressive versions like you find on wedges and some irons. People refer to conforming grooves (a little misleadingly) as V-grooves for historical reasons rather than reasons of accuracy.

    on the mizuno website, it shows the 62’s as having forged u grooves. Thats why i was asking about the clubs conforming. Where did you see that the mizunos are v grooves

    I was going to order a new set of MP62’s and tested these against the MP67’s. Absolutley no contest, the MP67’s were superior in every respect. When I tried to order a custom set of MP67’s I was told that they were no longer available. When I asked if a replacement was due they said there was and gave Sept as the launch date. I desperately want to see the replacement in the flesh and hit it before making up my mind. I hope it is worth waiting for as the MP62’s are not great

    All the mizuno irons are already conforming so these will too.

    wow, the blades look exactly like the mp-37s

    Wow good news! It only make sense that the best iron makers would offer more options to everyone. Thanks Joel!

    And Alex.. I have to agree with William here. The 67 looks a bit busy not because of the words but its contour. The 62 looks just perfect tho.

    I just talked to a Mizuno rep, and he said that these would in fact be available for all those who swing backwards….lefties. Just thought I would pass that along for those who have been left in the dark for so long. Cheers

    Mizuno needs to cater more to lefties. I would love to get my hands on a set of new blades!

    How can they forget the bird, when that is part of there logo, it has been around for a long time, and is incorporated in everything Mizuno does? The back of the blade says mizuno and prototype, how is that busy?

  15. William

    Pretty clubs. The back looks a little busy. I wish they would FORGET the “bird”!

    Well hopefully they will be brought out at the end of the summer. Mizuno traditionally releases new irons out in August/September, so hopefully we will see some new additions soon!

    I’m a HUGE fan of any MP iron Mizuno brings out. I was going to buy a new set of MP-62’s to replace my MP-32’s but now I think I will wait until the Fall to see if these make it to market.

    My God, that Prototype has drool hanging from my mouth……..when will we see a set retail???

    when will Mizuno let lefties into their top end blades?

    Sweeeeeeeeeet… 🙂

    Mizuno never fails to impress, but will they out do themselves? Hopefully, although unlikely, these new sticks will be available for lefties.

Testing Lorem Ipsum

Published

on


What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Photos from the 2026 PGA Championship

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
